Finding Their Voice

Finding Their Voice

Rostrum Voice of Youth is a national public speaking competition for students in Years 7-12 which provides an excellent opportunity for entrants to gain experience and confidence in expressing their views and communicating a message.  Eight students from SAC competed in the first heat of the competition alongside hundreds of other students from across SA.  Each competitor had to present a pre-prepared speech as well as a quick preparation round where students had only 15 minutes to prepare a three-minute speech on an unknown topic.  Our students demonstrated Mercy Values throughout the day, both in their conduct and the content of their speeches.  Aamina (10LS) and Senudi (7AP) were both then invited to compete at the Semi-Finals two weeks later.  Good luck to Senudi who will now be competing in the State Final to be held at the House of Assembly, Parliament House on Saturday 27 June.  Congratulations to all our incredible speakers.
